The gradually increased duties and independence of umpires were reflected in an 1882 ruling that abolished the practice of arbiters appealing to fans and players for guidance on a disputed play.
Dumping on the umpire was a practice encouraged by owners, who realized that fans howled in delight at the sight of authority being humiliated.
They personified the amateur spirit of the game of baseball.

 Clem's Baseball ~ 19th Century Major Leagues
The first true professional baseball organization was the National League, founded in 1876.
The Players League seems to have been inspired by utopian labor rights' philosophies that were prevalent in the late 19th Century, but this being America, it couldn't last.
It was later challenged by the American Association (1882-1891), the Union Association (1884), and the Players League (1890).

 Moses Fleetwood Walker
A white Oberlin teammate, pitcher Harlan Burket, class of 1882, went on to play professional baseball in Toledo, and Walker joined him there in the summer of 1883.
Walker's baseball accomplishments were generally forgotten, his historical significance relegated to an occasional newspaper article or mention in the Oberlin Alumni Magazine-although he was an item in the first edition of the board game Trivial Pursuit.
Walker grew up in Mt. Pleasant-his father, Dr. Moses W. Walker, was one of the first black physicians in Ohio-and learned to play baseball from local Civil War veterans.

 Robin Garr's Louisville Restaurant Guide / Browning's
On May 2, 1882, a rookie ball player named Louis Rogers "Pete" Browning, a strapping 180-pound six-footer still six weeks short of his 21st birthday, made his baseball debut with the Louisville Eclipse, our city's entry in the original National Baseball League during those brief glory days when Louisville boasted a major-league team.
Six large-screen televisions offer a variety of sports and news fare; they're tuned to Bats baseball, of course, when there's a home game playing.
Concluding that it would be silly to make you wait until the local beers were ready before telling you about the restaurant, I reviewed BROWNING'S at Slugger Field when the eatery opened for business at the start of the Louisville Bats' baseball season.

 Amazon.ca: Books: Chris Von Der Ahe and the St. Louis Browns
As a lover of baseball history, I liked his outstanding treatment into the history of the American Association, the league that, for ten years (1882-1891), challenged the established National League and ushered in the precursor of today's World Series.
Fans who think the game is wild now will appreciate Hetrick's account of Von der Ahe...who throughout the 1880s was embroiled in legal battles and baseball disputes that culminated in his own kidnapping and his stadium being burned to the ground.
But after reading "Chris Von der Ahe and the St. Louis Browns," I never thought I could meet a gent who could build a ballclub to prominence like Ted Turner, then break the team up quicker than Wayne Huzienga did with the Marlins.

 Alexander Joy Cartwright IV Presents the City of Hoboken a Stunning Birthday Present
Not only did he create the first organized baseball team, but he also designed the baseball diamond and specified the distance between the bases, along with other rules and regulations still in use today.
It is said he became a kind of “Johnny Appleseed” of baseball, teaching the game to settlers at frontier towns and Army posts, and even Indians along the way.
Cartwright described the process of creating this plaque as follows: “Using 16-gauge 304 stainless steel, we applied a chemical to the surface that allows the laser to ‘stick’ to the metal.
